I write. I take pictures.
This is a lighthouse. The Cape Meares light on the northern Oregon Coast. I'm just going to post my random work... no more post of a post of a post.

Just a self-amusing kind of day. An old photograph of mine to go with my musings this last Monday of 2024.

Fun fact: I've been on Bluesky for seven days... my follower list says 138. My actual count is only 59. More than half have been "boob follows" or other variations on a scam. Block list run amok.
This is a massive tree stump washed up on an Oregon beach today.

I wrote this back in 2018... the photo is from a solo trip I took to Milford Sound, in New Zealand that year. Solo, mainly because "honest admission" photography buddy choked on the truth shoved down her throat. Never screw with a Virgo!

I wrote this last summer... while still hopeful for our nation's sanity.
Now my wife & I are full-time nomads. It's not a fancy life, I see plenty crazy on the road...
Yet I'm just stubborn enough to keep the faith.

An old image from the early learning years. A red filter, an hour or so north of Scranton, PA, brought out the core. 2017.

I'm growing more aware that the extreme NW tip of Oregon, along the southern flank of the Columbia River... is where Santa Claus lives.

"low-income Americans who voted for Trump say they are counting on him to keep their benefits intact"
Do you laugh? Cry? Mock? Sympathize? I genuinely don't know.

A stormy sunset made for crummy shooting... so I turned this scene into a b&w image.
The 1906 wreck of the Peter Iredale is on the beach. A modern container ship at the horizon is about to brave the deadliest bar crossing on the planet. The Columbia River Bar.

This is part of the train trestle built to haul rock for the construction of the south jetty at the mouth of the Columbia River. A young bull elk grazed nearby.
